Harry Steps Down - Ipswich Town News

TWTD’s regular pre-match coverage will be lacking HarryFromBath’s Notes delving into opposition forums during the season ahead with the site legend stepping down from his role.

Having started as forum posts, Harry’s Notes, which provided an in-depth insight into the opposition courtesy of their own supporters, were elevated to the news pages in 2013 and became an important and well-loved aspect of TWTD with a number of Blues legends giving them praise over the years, in addition to innumerable fans.

"With the heaviest of hearts, I took the decision a few weeks ago to step away from writing the previews for the coming season,” Harry says.

"This is primarily due to a lack of time, as work and other personal commitments have made it impossible to continue what has become a labour of love.

"It is an absolute privilege to support Town, and it has been no less a privilege to piece together the pre-match Notes which were always designed to help add to everyone's enjoyment when watching us play.

"In TWTD we are privileged to have a truly wonderful independent website and it has been a joy to contribute to it. "I just want to say the most heartfelt thank-you to everyone for your kind, supportive and insightful comments over the years.

In light of TWTDs story we should also say that we’ll be letting our friend @HarryFromBath recharge his battery’s with the door wide open for him to come straight back in when he’s ready 😊 https://t.co/VNcWpuwU2p

"I cannot thank Phil and Gav enough for their kind and insightful support when producing the Notes. One can never stop loving one’s football team, and I will still proudly be supporting us throughout our League One odyssey.”

Phil and Gav would like thank Harry for his years of work on the Notes and look forward to seeing him next time he is at Portman Road.
